Default got my 07 back - WARNING - gooey leg picture

not sure who remembers my 2nd post on here.
https://cbrforum.com/m_567167/mpage_1/key_/tm.htm

Got my bike back last week...you can kinda see the dull spots in the paint on the gas tank and tail where I just painted over the road rash. I plan on doing a full repair of the tank cover and tail cowl with jb weld, bondo, lots of sandpaper and all that mess pretty soon.

brand new


-sad bike


what it looks like today
and yes I know my half mangled stock exhaust is really ugly




very bad color

guess I would finally put this up too.
jeans+going over 80mph=no good

It's all healed up now other than a very small scab where it was previously a gaping hole in my knee

thanks guys...the mountain in the backround is the one I went down on. Just today on my way up there someone said there was a bike accident earlier that day. Rode up there and there were broken plastics all over the same turn I went down on.

Hopefully guy faired better than me

I go to the mountain I have my leathers on for that very reason (your leg). Thats shyt HURTS. I've never been that bad, but what lil I have had was enough to teach me. I do wear jeans for around town tho, but have the rest of my gear on.

Glad ya healing up too. And that I'm not the only one with chicken legs [sm=icon_cheers.gif][sm=joke.gif]

You were wearing jeans? I must have been lucky when I went down in jeans at 70 mph on the freeway and only came out with this...............

I mean, I STILL wear the jeans I went down in too! Guess it depends on "how" you do down too. Glad to hear you are alright though........and the bike too.

damn bluefox, that isn't much at all.

was probably only 15-20mph faster than your crash..but I was also hanging off the bike in a deep left hand turn. I am pretty sure most of the actual damage was from the split second where the bike lowsided while i had my knee out. Bike pretty much landed on my left leg
